Message: [QUOTE="CL82, post: 4204177, member: 44"] Yeah, I guess you and I will not see eye to eye on this one. I think whether or not he was going to ‘throw hands’ is relevant. If he was, he would be out of control in my view. Exchanging words with them? [shrugs] We can agree that he would be better off turning a blind eye to some idiots shouting crap about him from the cheap seats. I’m sure he’s figured that out from the coverage of this exchange. We can agree as well, about the need to keep his emotions in check during a game. That pouty face thing he does when he feels the team is being victimized by calls isn’t a good look at all. I haven’t sat behind the bench, but from what I can see, Hurley doesn’t look panicked. If the evidence for that is we’ve lost more close games than we’ve won this season I’d suggest that there’s an alternative way to view close losses. The teams defense is good enough this year to keep us in a lot of games, most in fact. So is it that Hurley panicked and we lost a close game, or is it that the teams defense is good enough to keep us in contact? If Hurley calls a play and the team gets a good look, is it on Hurley if the player misses the shot? It could be, I guess. I’m just not convinced of it yet. In any event, you are right I’m reacting to the hyperbole in your post, which is something we all do to make a point. I felt like it was unfair to Hurley. But, yeah, we can agree to disagree. [/QUOTE]
